[Locked] Maitetsu patch does not replace all-age cgs

I certainly hope so. Though I'll be slowly making my way through the game either way; I've been wanting to play Lose's works for a long time so I decided to support them without demanding a refund. I don't want this to negatively affect future prospects for Monobeno, no matter how unlikely that may be.

Sweet Sweat and Sweet Young Bride are imo extremely loli, and can't be see as anything BUT loli when compared to 99% of pornographic visual novels, so I think that's a bullshit excuse on Manga Gamers part, not that that makes any difference....

But here we are. Because they decided it's "one degree too loli" we're stuck with Sekai's dumpster fire....




PLEASE 😱

Regarding self-publishing, consider:

• How to gauge the quality of a translation no one at your company speaks?

• How to market to an audience in that language when you know little or nothing about the market?

• How to connect with fans to get useful and actionable feedback?

• How to ensure decision makers--who can't interact directly with fans--have the context to judge and implement said feedback?

• If running a crowdfunding campaign, how to acquire the necessary competence in this very particular business model when all the information is in another language?

• Most importantly, how to do all of the above while keeping costs to a bare minimum? You can hire at most one entry-level permanent staff member.

That's just a sampling of typical issues a company would encounter. You need a variety of different expertises that aren't common in the Japanese eroge industry, which makes them potentially expensive / time-consuming to acquire. Worse, this is a side-project that might not even recoup costs, and at a time when domestic market conditions are unfavorable. Spend too much and you could bankrupt the company.

I think people should actually start begging or asking and suggesting to MangaGamer that they pick up more Loli VNs, they can sell just as well as the regular eroge VNs, or at least I believe so. Like tell them to pick up like "Lollipop Factory" or something.

I think it is absolutely ignorant to believe that there is no market for Loli content in the west. On the contrary, it is something that is almost nonexistant within Western productions (unfortunately....) so it's a great niche.

As for what people have been saying about MonoBeno, I agree. It would be great if it got a translation because from what I hear the story is quite interesting, and the porn is definitely great (I looked it up online 😎)

Seeing as I don't plan on spending money quite yet on a broken game, I have gotten the game and made a drag and drop patch that fixes the common route CG's and the EMote characters(the ones that move like the censored Hachiroku at start as well as the nude models). Only thing I couldn't get working were Paulette(Nude A), Makura(Nude), and Kisaki(Nude). Fixing those requires more effort than i'm comfortable putting into something like this. If anyone knows how to compile EMote PSB files, fixing the last three girls is as simple as editing the BMP images in Photoshop with cut and paste from the corresponding Jap version files.(Both emotedx.xp3 files decompiled with krkrextract to get BMP and animation bsp.tjs files.)

This is a patch. Not the full 18+ dlc.

If there are any questions send me a message and I will probably answer. If i remember to check.. c:

NICE!!! Thank you for this.

Man, you are amazing!

Just out of curiosity, can you make a full restoration patch and how much will you charge for it?

I'd be willing to fully repair the game, but this is hopefully temporary until SP fixes their shit. And like I said earlier, I don't know of any method to recompile .bsp files. That, and the fact that the data.xp3 file seems to be encrypted and the games core files thrown around where they aren't normally, and have no reason being there (Modification prevention?). KrkrExtract can only do so much. It cant decrypt some files as I found out when I tried repacking data.xp3 with modified files, and the game spit out a "startup.tjs missing" error. Found out the archive has multiple startup.tjs files, one being a fake and the other real, but with no way of finding out which since that's a file that krkrextract just does not want to extract either from encryption errors from the duplicate, or it just freaks out when there are dupes. From what I see it'd be easier just to repack the JP release with english files. Haven't delved into kirikiri translation too much but I have free time.

P.S. repacking and extracting with krkrextract is a pain in the ass lmao

Hey, you never know. That whole Dovac debacle hopefully put a fire under their asses. It's one thing if you're a "company" that happens to translate but it's also another to make corporate commitments to offer a working product. Hopefully they know they are just making a mockery of themselves.

You sir, are an incredible individual.

If this ends up being fixed by fans faster than actual company behind the official published product, then what that tells about said company... If i were being paid for doing a certain commission i would not fucking rest till i had fixed my mistake, work morale in these companies is repulsive. I spend usually at work overtime without even getting legal overtime supplementary pay because i have thing called reverence towards the work i am doing. If you do not have that then i suggest that you start to find a new job... Mistakes are humane thing and there is nothing wrong doing them, but when you start avoid responsibility for your own mistakes then it makes you a dishonorable rat. I do not know all the details so i really hope this is not the case, some people spread lies and trash talk because they are angry for not getting what they were paying for. To me this is not about money and i am rather disappointed about how the company behind the translation seems to be behaving towards this issue. Then again some major publisher do same thing but the thing is they can afford to do so, this is very niche group of people these kind of games are targeted towards. Once you lose their respect and loyalty towards your services then it may end up poorly. Admittedly at this moment i do not think that is not such a huge deal since Japanese eroge translation industry has not much rivalry between translation companies. I do not know what more to say, i just have really shit taste in my mouth from this absurd situation. (Also i do not blame Fakku for any of these issues, hence i have not refunded and will not refund the purchase i have made)

@Heliosaurus I suggest you post your progress on Fuwa as already has been suggested. They might have their attention at Anime Expo for the moment, but once the Fakku people start taking a look at this thread again, I very much doubt your posts about the patch will remain. This is not exactly the best place for it. I suggest at least taking screenshots of your posts here...

Besides, as you said, there are some parts you don't know how to solve, and Fuwa would be the ideal place to get attention of those who could.

Let's hope there's a possibility of an official fix soonish, but it's Sekai so... I've put my own purchase on hold, but so far Fakku has been quite forthcoming so I'd rather give them a chance and see what the official response will be, from them, Sekai and the Japanese publisher. Jacob promised to inform us after Anime Expo so we'll see...
